Erase old bexec tape 1

[ulsj]

Hi!

Have a test inviroment with a fresch instalaltion of netbackup 4.5 and a DLT 4000. I have some old backupexec tapes that I want to use in my new netbackup installation.
What can I do to Erase the data so that netbackup can write to the old backupexec tapes.

You could use the "bplabel" command with few switches.

Maybe you could also configure Netbackup (Netbackup >> configure) and allow it to overwrite ay kind of tape format(don't exactly remember where it is).

Hope this helps.
